Economic Condition Assessment

Economic condition is a composite of a government's financial health and its ability and willingness to meet its financial obligations and commitments to provide services. Economic condition includes three components: financial position, fiscal capacity, and service capacity.

This Power Point presentation, developed by GASB staff, discusses the basics of analyzing a government's economic condition using the financial statements required by GASB Statement 34.
